Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Chess for two at one table. Play on one phone, or link two phones nearby — no internet, no accounts, no ads. Set the clock and make your move. Pocket Rook is chess for two people at the same table. No internet, no sign-up, no ads. Just the board, the clock and your opponent. ONE PHONE, TWO PLAYERS Lay the phone flat between you. Each side of the board faces its player, and the clock switches after every move. Games on one phone are always free and unlimited. TWO PHONES, ONE GAME Create a room. Your friend scans the QR code, types the 6-digit code or taps your room in the nearby list. Each of you plays on your own phone. The phones talk directly to each other, so you can play on a plane, at the beach or anywhere with no signal.
